| Description | Tracks 1 - 10: An assembly of edited clips from the actualities, some distortion of sound between clips. The clippings assembled on this reel are generally about the employment situation in early twentieth century Ireland, and the reason why Irish men feel that they have no choice but to find work abroad. The clips also deal with the employment and working conditions on labouring jobs in Britain, with reference to the types of jobs and the treatment of workers by gangermen. There is also some description of the sort of accomodation that they stayed in, and an Irish landlord.
